The DIMM kit we received is 16GB in total, it a CL14 kit. Each DIMM is 8GB a piece and thus single, dual and doubled up quad-channel compatible with the Intel platform, but also Ryzen 3000 / Threadripper 3000.
Here we have the DIMMs after unpacking. A simple design, cool that the PCB is black as most motherboards have a black PCB as well these days. XMP is of course supported. The mirror glossy finish is protected by plastic wrappers.
The DIMMs come with a nice all dark design, even without power on that ARGB setup they already look very premium. As you might have noticed from that sticker, this kit can manage latencies of 14-15-15-34at 1.45 Volts, and that is an average latency for this memory frequency alright. For optimal stability, we do recommend you stick to the manufacturer's suggested settings at default SPD or XMP 2.0 profile which you can easily enable in the motherboard BIOS.
We like the black PCB and the matching heat-spreader, styling wise (hey it matters in a high-end cool looking rig) this is a very tasteful kit as well as aesthetically wise. With expensive memory often come some extras, Team Group offers a limited lifetime warranty with these memory modules, you can't beat that. Height is a little high at 5cm /2".
Though 32GB is preferred for systems that need to handle complex workloads, 16GB with two DIMMs does kinda rock plenty for a proper gaming rig. These days in a PC we recommend 8GB as default minimum for your average internet PC, 16GB for a little extra in your spicy gaming rig and 32GB for the ones that use memory-intensive applications / do memory intensive transcoding and/or content creation.
Yes, and once you enable the PC, a default rainbow rotation kicks in, it's just gorgeous to observe. you can, however, sync RGB up with your motherboard RGB software. Below a few more photos of how fascinating the looks for this kit are.
My one remark is that companies tend to over-use their logo for branding purposes, we do feel that the T-FORCE logo at the top side of the DIMM is too visually out there. And that might hold off potential buyers.
